From the equation tantheta=(rg)/(v^(2)) ...

From the equation `tantheta=(rg)/(v^(2))` one can obtain the angle of banking `theta` for a cyclise taking a curve (the symbols have their usual meanings). Then say, it is

A

Both dimensionally and numerically correct

B

Neither numerically nor dimensionally correct

C

Dimensionally correct only

D

Numerically correct only

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`tan theta = (rg)/v^2`
Equation is dimensionally correct because both side are dimensionless but numerically wrong because
`tan theta =v^2/(rg) rarr` banking of road.
